ABOUT Dr. William L. Bainbridge:
"Dr. Bill Bainbridge combines his knowledge of K-12 education, business, politics,
and parenting to provide a very insightful perspective on public education and
accountability. One of his best attributes is the ability to take a common sense
approach when he discusses solutions to complex problems in the field of public
education. Bill knows how to communicate effectively with educators, parents,
and policymakers on difficult issues related to school reform."
Dr. Roderick J. McDavis
Past Chair American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education
President Ohio University
"I believe education is the single most important civil rights issue in America today, and
Dr. Bill Bainbridge, by advocating school accountability, is standing up for our nation’s
children. Dr. Bainbridge has the experience and insight to propose workable solutions to
the most difficult challenges facing education in America. Part of the American dream is
giving our children more and better opportunities to learn, achieve and be successful.
Dr. Bainbridge’s cogent and concise analysis and commentary are useful tools for
parents, educators, politicians and everyone who has a stake in our nation’s future."
John R. Kasich
Host and Commentator The Fox News Channel
Former Chairman, United States House of Representatives Budget Committee
"I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with some of the most knowledgeable
and competent educators over a more than forty year period. William Bainbridge ranks
with the best.
In an era when parents and taxpayers are attempting to better understand public
school issues and solutions, it is important to have experts write for the newspapers
citizens read every day. Dr. Bainbridge has had the years of successful experience
communicating complex education topics in terms the lay public can understand.
Because of his expertise and experience as a practitioner as well as a communicator,
I highly recommend his column to you."
Dr. Leon M. Lessinger
Former Associate Commissioner for K-12 Schools
U.S. Department of Education
Known to educators as "the Father of Educational Accountability"
"First, education is the No. 1 policy issue of our times. Newspaper readers need help making their way through today’s maze of school-related topics. Second, we know of no one who provides better assistance than Dr. Bainbridge. The Dispatch has published his columns since 1979 as have more than 20 American newspapers"
Mr. Michael F. Curtin
President, The Columbus Dispatch
"Bill Bainbridge is one of the few individuals who describe education policy and practice
from both sides of the desk. He understands the world of the practitioner, yet his voice
also shapes the ideas of those focused on policy. Through his eyes, readers will see with
more clarity the complex world of public education."
Dr. Thomas J Lasley, II
Dean School of Education and Allied Professions
University of Dayton
"Bill Bainbridge has two attributes that are essential in someone who successfully
writes on a regular basis: he has something to say, based on his experiences and
observations, and he says it well. His background of work in a state education agency,
in a local school district, and now in a private sector business where he has the
opportunity to view schools in all parts of this nation, gives him a perspective that is unique.
In today's bewildering education environment of many choices, it is important for the
public to have the opportunity for understanding what is taking place."
Dr. Richard A. Boyd
Former Chairman of the National Assessment of Educational Progress Governing Board
Professor of Education Leadership University of Mississippi
"Dr. William Bainbridge’s experience as a school superintendent in three different
districts and as an entrepreneur running his own research and consulting business
provides him with a unique view of education from many angles. His column addresses
important, timely issues in education in a style that engages the reader. His insightful
analysis of educational topics is a rarity in today’s news. Dr. Bainbridge’s column should
be on the "recommended reading" list of anyone who wants to keep abreast of educational
issues today."
Dr. Suzanne Burkholder
Former President American Association of School Personnel Administrators
"As publisher of various New York Times' Regional Newspapers, I have always
placed a high priority on primary and secondary education. The SchoolMatch
program provides objective standards against which schools can be measured
against other schools in the same district and in similar communities.
These comparisons help provide the foundation for accountability of the
school board, teachers, and the students needed to provide the best
educational opportunities for our children. Dr. Bill Bainbridge has the ability
to make these very complex issues more easily understood."
Lynn O. Matthews
President and C.O.O.
New York Times Regional Newspapers
"Raising a family within the military makes one an "expert" at moving, adjusting,
and raising children in a number of schools from Del Rio, Texas to France and
England. Our sons attended seven schools, including three High Schools, our
daughter a few less. [All have Master's Degrees today.] I know good schools when
I see them, and I most certainly know outstanding Educators when I meet them.
Dr. Bill Bainbridge is the very best. I have known him for over 15 years. He is articulate,
innovative, and brings an entrepreneurial spirit to Education seldom seen in today's
environment. He gets to the heart of the problem! Were I a School Superintendent
you could not keep me from his door. Following his advice, I would have an
outstanding school district and be the envy of my colleagues.
Major General Lawrence D. Garrison
United States Air Force [Retired]
"Bill Bainbridge is an excellent communicator. His hard-hitting and factual
analysis of public education appeals to all readers. It is written in clear and
understandable language.
Dr. Franklin B. Walter
Past President-Council of Chief State School Officers
Superintendent of Public Instruction Emeritus -State of Ohio
Professor The Ohio State University
Vice President A.G. Edwards
Dr. William Bainbridge brings to the reader the reality of public education issues as
supported by the data collection, thorough analysis, and on-site visitations of school
systems, both large and small, across this country. He cannot only speak to the facts
authoritatively, but he is also able to offer thoughtful solutions to today's complex
educational issues."
Dr. Gail F. McKinzie
Superintendent Indian Prairie School District Naperville, IL
"In recent years, educational reform and the accountability movement have spawned a
host of new numbers and concepts for parents, educators, journalists and
policy makers to contemplate. Each release of such information triggers a
search for understanding. What does it mean if my child scored in the sixth stanine?
What significance should we attach to the fact that 68% of our sixth-graders
passed the state reading test? What do I need to know about the new charter school
in my community?
For many years, Dr. William L. Bainbridge has been providing succinct, accurate and
understandable commentaries on such questions. He speaks with an authoritative
-- and independent -- voice. He has been a teacher, top-level state education official
and superintendent of three school districts. He is the creator and CEO of the most
comprehensive research-and-counseling organization in education today.
As a newspaper columnist, Dr. Bainbridge is without peer in the field of education.
Why? Simply because he represents an unparalleled combination of knowledge,
experience and communication skills. For those who wish -- or need -- to remain
current on the issues buffeting education today, a reading of Bill Bainbridge
columns is a must.
Dr. Joseph L. Davis
Past President, National School Public Relations Association
Director Emeritus National Academy for Superintendents
The Ohio State University
Former Superintendent of Schools, Columbus, OH
"Dr. William Bainbridge is adept at seeing through the fog of bureaucracy and
revealing weaknesses that demand attention. He is able to translate the
importance of accountability and responsibility for people within the systems
of education while stressing the support that is so needed for public education
at this time."
Janice Mee
Past President, Florida School Boards Association
"Bill's analysis of our schools has made him an expert on reforms that work. His message
is clear and convincing, perhaps the best chance for improvements in our schools.
Everyone should read what he has to say."
Mr. John Tabor
Publisher Seacoast Newspapers
